BuddyPress.org

Apologies, I’m not a developer but trying to find a solution that works.

I tried editing bp-profile-filters.php by adding add_filter( ‘xprofile_get_field_data’,’wpautop’ );

I also tried upgrading Buddypress Xprofile Custom Fields Type plugin, as it was out of date, but this hasn’t helped.

From my rudimentary understanding, What I think I need to do is edit echo $data; to somehow include wpautop but I am not finding a way to do that…apologies if it is simple.

Thanks,

Ian

i already did im just waiting for it to be approved right now.

and i did look here also https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/loops-reference/the-activity-stream-loop/

i think i need something like this to only show bbpress activity

[activity-stream object=bbpress]

and maybe add an exclude or a action but i dont know for sure

on action it says this on his website , i think that could help but i cant get it to work.

action(string):- action to filter on e.g. activity_update, new_forum_post, profile_updated(why this activity was created)

oh and i dont know how bbpress shortcodes could help??

I uploaded buddypress to my site, to see if it was a better option than what I was using and when I checked it; it had done something to the site coding so that I can’t access my indeed jobs scrapper, and also messed up the slider banner; so it is not a safe plugin to use as it interacts with other functions on wordpress sites. But it is nice to see how you divert the topic away from the issue which is that your plug in doesn’t plug in well with wordpress themes

Thanks @danbp showing site activity by using the topic filter sounds good. I went to this link – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/changing-the-default-activity-filter/ – but the posts there were a bit over my head as a beginner to be honest. However, the link in that thread to this article was useful: http://wpmu.org/how-to-customize-the-buddypress-activity-loop/

Problem is I can’t find the the /activity/ folder in my theme. Where do I need to look for that?

Also, is there a way I can allow members to post directly to the activity stream from the homepage, Facebook style, and for members comment on each others’ posts from there too?

I appreciate the help.

I found this:

http://buddydev.com/snippets/tag/add-post-form-to-buddypress-activity-shortcode-plugin/

but how can I add the code into a new WordPress site :)?

Best regards

Ok, the plugin is nice to insert video and picture of posted links on buddypress. But how can I add an extra site (only with the post-form) on that the user will be forwarded if he wants to share a link?
I don’t want that the user has to copy and paste a link from other sites. My goal is to give him a share button which takes this. You will help me if you give me a hint how can I add an extra site on my wordpress blog only with the post-form of buddypress.

I need the code for this site because I want to paste the link of the external site by using php (http://www.tizag.com/phpT/postget.php). Do you know what I want to realize? 🙂

PS: I don’t understand how I should us the custom-type-form of wordpress for my idea. Because I didn’t know how I can insert the post-type into a custome-post-type. But if you say that this is the only way I will search for some more tutorials.

Best regards

I’ve managed to achieve what I wanted – fetching activities for the user, the user’s friends, groups that the user is a member of and groups which are tagged with the sports the user is interested in. I’ve added some custom filtering within BuddyPress core functions – I prefer to use filters and hooks but modifying core was my only option in this case.

My bp_has_activities() request now looks like this:

$args = array(
	bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ),
	'custom_filter' => array(
		'relation' => 'OR',
		array(
			'user_id' => $user_ids,
		),
		array(
			'group_id' => $group_ids
		)
	)
);
?>

<?php if ( bp_has_activities( $args ) ) : ?>

I can share code with anyone interested in this.

Also fixed a bug in the BP_Groups_Group::get() meta_query code which I’ve detailed above and is now on BP Trac here:
